See an Alaska avalanche as it happened

It's not very often you get to see an avalanche, and it's probably good you don't -- especially if you’re in its path. Check out this one-minute home video of an avalanche that occurred in 2000 and wiped out a section of the road between Thane and Juneau. The massive slide measured 100 feet long and was 20 feet deep, and temporarily cut off road travel between Juneau and Thane's 180 residents. You'll need Quicktime to view this.
